Easing into Seasonal Tea Ritual [handbook]

This little handbook is a simple thought companion for exploring contemplative tea, highlighting entry points of the scent, touch, taste, and sound; awareness, fire, steam, earth, water, wood, space, and metal.

The opening personal reflection describes tea ritual as a way of arranging oneself and one's teaware in a place, time, and in connection with both the natural world and one's own heart. It concludes with a concise expression of seasonal belonging.

This booklet was written by Michael Busby in 2023, drawing on conversations with teachers and friends, study, and personal connection with elements, seasons, and tea. Thirty-two pages.
